Thank you for your service. Those really were the days.

Edit: not dismissing your current work. This place is pretty nice too :)

Thinking back to those carefree days fills me with a strange sense of melancholy. It all seems to have gone wrong somewhere along the way, and not just in terms of IM apps.

Same here. And I can't put my finger on it. I always dismissed it as coming of age and lifestyle changes.

Yeah, it's been so long now I don't remember why I stopped using Trillian (and Pidgin). But when it worked, it was so much nicer just to have one program running vs 5.

This looks like a modern Trillian. It's about time.

Reading is overrated. I'd feed it to an AI so I could have somewhere to ask questions.

Bored old dudes with rifles watching over their parked vehicles in dense urban centers seems like a disproportionate response to having some tires deflated. I think your speculation about the public supporting someone being murdered over their participation in peaceful protest is pretty depressing. I hope you don’t actually think that.

Oh, absolutely. I'm not advocating for it, just commenting on the local climate. All it would take is fox news saying "AnTEEfah is coming to cut your tires so you can't go to church and worship jesus! Why do they hate baby jesus?" and there would be people willing, if not itching, to kill over it. It is very depressing, all that rage could be put to much better use.

I wish this form of protest would catch on elsewhere as well.

I feel this would go over differently in the land of "fuck around and find out". You'd have bored old dudes with rifles setting up watches. And ~~if~~ when something did happen, public opinion is not going to be on the air-letters side.

not enabling the vehicle owner to file an insurance claim.

My insurance comes with road hazard that would cover this at no cost; and I'm a poor.

It seems misguided. The people doing the most climate damage aren't parking their cars on the streets. Go pop some private jet tires.

This seems like an excellent way to get normal people interested in spoofing facial recognition.

I know. I really want to like turn based tactical games but the RNGs end up making me rage quit before I can get into them.

My brain autocorrects x.com to x-com every time. And I just couldn't get into that game.

But we're totally going to own huffman by putting "fuck spez" all over it! He'll probably shut the site down out of sheer embarrassment.

Edit: I do like how they make you show your work on HumanShader.
